Exotherme (Eraser) Laser Treatment
Exotherme is a transcutaneous vascular laser, dedicated to spider veins and telangiectasias, up to 2mm of diameter, for a safe, efficient and painless treatment.
Principl
The principle of the Exotherme™ laser is based on the thermal action of the laser. The transcutaneous irradiation (with a penetration of 1 to 2 mm in the tissue) causes tissue selective absorption by hemeglobin (hemoglobin is the main target of the laser).
The effect of selective photocoagulation is based on two effects:
- Conversion of light energy into heat,
- Coagulation of the vascular wall with collagen denaturation.
Selective photocoagulation does not cause purpura (contrary to photothermolysis).
Indications
The superficial vessels, from 0.2 to 2 mm of diameter:
- Spider veins
- Telangectasias
Exotherme™ is cleared on the US market for the photocoagulation of leg telangiectasias.
The auto-regulated cooling system allows to:
- Protect the epidermis
- Make the treatment painless
- Use higher fluencies
- Make the treatment reproducible without discomfort for the patient cause no inflammatory reaction
The built-in camera allows:
- On screen visualization
- To target more precisely
- To control the dosimetry (spasm of the vein)
- The patients to watch their treatments in real time
- To give value to the act because the patient see the immediate effects of the laser.
The Multipulse Mode:
- More efficiency of the laser
- Reduction of the energy of the laser by a factory of 3 to 4
- Increased safety for surrounding tissue
